Do i need to enable the USB debugging in the phone's developer setting before I flash?

At the moment I can't do that because my Z1 can't even boot up.

Has Sony changed file contents?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alfxda:
FILE_XXXX downloaded with Pc Companion seem compressed one time only, with 7-zip can extract its contents.

FILE_XXXX downloaded with xperiafirm seem compressed two times. With 7-zip can extract its contents with 2 consecutive extractions. The first give me FILE_XXXX~ . From this file : FILE_XXXX~ I can extract its contents with 7-zip.

In both cases only a litlle FILE of 93KB can't extracted

Edit: this lttle FILE_XXX is the loader.sin. It's not necessary to extract, in the case of Pc Companion, only rename it . I can finally create bundle with Flashtool

Hi I'm having a nightmare with flashtool...

I've tried it both on mac and windows. It just doesn't pick up the rom.

Usb debugging enabled check

Mock locations enabled check

Unknown sources enabled check

All drivers loaded. The pc sees the phone.

Flashtool sees the phone, however when I try to create an ftf file, it does it in about 5 seconds and most of the 'content' doesn't seem to be there ie: the rom is 1.5Gb but the ftf file is about 10mb

Also, when I try to flash a rom via navigating to the unpacked zip file folder, it doesn't pick up any of the sin files and doesn't let me add any.

This is a 5.1.1. rom for an xperia z3 compact

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] [NUT]:
Make sure you add logs of your attempts to make sure people can have a solid look at what is going on...

Also, make sure you are using the latest version.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Pasifo:
Thanks for that, in the end the only way for me was to go back to 4.4...

Simply couldn't make any of the tools / routes work on 5.1.1.

Now i'm rooted perhaps i'll try the upgrade to 5.1.1 - Hopefully the phone is worth it after all the trouble though.

Wrong Screen Resolution - Missing Elements

Hi all,

Hoping someone can help me out here. I have a Xperia Z3+. I'm trying to flash a stock ROM. Have downloaded and installed the latest version of Flashtool however, no matter what I try, I cannot get the screens to display correctly (screenshots attached). This means I can't select anything or flash :(

Please note, it won't let me resize the box, nor does changing the display settings make any difference. I have also tried running this in Windows 7 compatibility mode, and through scaling the DPI settings - and still no luck!

Appreciate any help you guys can offer.

Having boot loop issues after flashing a stock image through the flashtool XperiFirm selection tool.

The bootloop will allow android to optimize the apps at some point and then it punts me out of the boot process in the late stages of the xperia boot image. I have a feeling I need to reflash the bootloader maybe? I was setup as TWRP before this. My goal is to get back to something I can dump Existence ROM onto. Just a bit rusty here as it's been a year or so.

Any tips?

Hi

I know this isnt the right place to post but I'd like to install this ROM but I really messed up. I was running LOS 14.1 and I wiped all data and cant flash a ROM because ADB is unauthorized. I cant flash a ROM.

So right now all I've got is TWRP and this:

C:\bin\pollux_windy>adb devices

List of devices attached

CB5A1R2CQW unauthorized

Do I need to go to stock? On that note I cant find a good link for the flashtool for the life of me.

I figured with some OS on it I could enable debugging...

I tried doing something with the keys but I dont have a /data/misc/adb folder when using the explorer in TWRP using this guide:

Set adb vendor keys​

EDIT: I figured out the problem, i think. ADB found out I wasn't on the latest updates (at&t released a stagefright udpate and i didnt know) so ADB didn't let me debug. Everything is fine now. I

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Androxyde:
Re: Flashtool beta for z .... (08/03/2013 new beta2)

Yes.

To unlock it again, FT just rewrites the unlock code into the Trim Area. When you try to relock the phone, FT saves the unlock code.

AW: Flashtool beta for z .... (08/03/2013 new beta2)

That's what the phone reports, yes. But when a (partially?) re-locked device with status=unknown gets hooked up to EMMA, what does EMMA report?

Because concerning warranty claims, I reckon service centers are lazy and if nothing points at user error, they don't do any thorough checks and simply hook it up to EMMA or SEUS or whatever tool they have and when that reports an ok device, they go ahead with their work.

Still, a clean relock is something good to have.

Please help

Hi, I'm having trouble when holding down the non-existent back button (I know it is a touch key and I try holding my finger in the position where the button is when the phone is turned on) and plugging in the USB cable...

Nothing happens Flashtool is giving me the pop-up windows that has the instructions to hold the back button and plug in the USB cable...

All works fine with my Arc S while holding the physical Back button and plugging in the USB cable...

Only way I get my PC and my laptop to recognize some kind of USB connection with the phone is while holding the Volume UP button and plugging in the USB cable - I get into FASTBOOT mode (Blue LED is on)

And if I hold Volume DOWN and connect the USB cable I also get connection but then I'm asked for QHSUSB_DLOAD device driver...

This could be the right combination for Flashmode (CAN'T BE SURE THOUGH) but the modded Flashtool for Xperia Z and the Driver folder (and the exe itself) don't provide the driver for the infamous QHSUSB_DLOAD (googled and found the QHSUSB_Drivers_(x64).rar Size(141.631 bytes))

After installation I get successful installation of COM port device called the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM10)

But that also does not get me into Flashmode for successful FTF flash on my new Xperia Z device

Please help...

Waat is the key combination for Flashtool Flashmode and could someone link the correct driver if I got the key combination right but have the incorrect driver

Thanks in advance

I relocked already with Flashtool and then I couldn't start the phone untill update with SUS?

EMMA also confirmed that - " Locked device"

Just hypothetically - you can ask for unlock code but you may not use it - right? You may not succeed to unlock.

So do they reject warranty if your device is locked but you've sent an unlock code request?
